MR2: Drum line


 This story describes the growth of a boy who concentrates his passion into a marching drum. This story’s main character is Devon. He has a genius for the drums, and he entered A&T University as a scholarship student. He is a conceited and egocentric person. So he conflicted with many people at many times. He especially conflicted with Sean who is an older drum leader. One time Devon and Sean confronted, and Devon won the argument. After that Devon took a brash attitude. One day, from Devon’s provocation that was too much, his university and a rival school got into a fight during the game. And it was found out that Devon didn’t read musical scores, so he had lied to get admission. So Lee who is director of A&T University’s marching club was enraged and Devon had to leave the marching club. But Devon wanted to continue playing the drums, so he visited the rival school which scouted him and he told his intention to transfer. Then the director of the rival school, Wade, gave him a condition instead of admitting him. The condition was that Devon has to tell Wade about A&T University club’s covert plans. Devon was disappointed with the director and he woke up. Devon was changed his attitude, and he began to study to music score.

   My favorite scene is when Devon and Sean were reconciled. Sean taught Devon how to read a music score, and Devon attended classes and studied hard. This scene had no exchange of dialogue, it had only music. I like the constitution, and I was moved.

    Devon grown as a human and suddenly played in the drum line of the finals. Through the story I felt Devon’s growth as a human. And this movie told me the importance of cooperation and mind to value friends. Nobody can live alone.

    This movie was made by Charles Stone in America in 2002.
